14 “And he hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our Cod: many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the Lord.” —Psalm 40:3 The Christian sings a new song. In his past life he sang the old songs, the songs of the world, which speak of gaiety without joy, sorrow without hope, and resignation without peace. The new song is the true song because its source is in God, who alone can give real cause for song. The new song is the true song because its theme is a personal experience of redemption: “He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings.” The heart which has ex¬ perienced this cannot help but sing. The new song is the true song because it praises God. Many songs have been written about men of heroic deeds, but God alone has performed the greatest deed, the redemption from sin in Christ Jesus. Therefore he is worthy of the highest human praise. The new song is the true song because it brings blessing to others: “Many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the Lord.” The new song does not merely produce a pleasant sound for the ear, but a message for the human heart. The Christian sings the new song — let him sing it!
